I recently ran across this article published a few years ago in the Long Beach Hillel.Breast Implant

“A 24-year-old woman today was saved from death by a rocket in the most peculiar fashion. No, not by a handsome Israeli soldier-man sweeping her off her feet (although I’m sure that she, along with many other women, wouldn’t mind), but another matter of the heart.

According to a hospital in Netanya, this woman had rocket shrapnel in her chest, which was inches from her heart. However, they were caught… in her breast implants.

Yes, breast implants.

I don’t know if this goes into support of the plastic surgery that tends to run rampant in the Jewish community. But who would have thought breast implants could produce miracles? According to the doctors at the hospital, if she didn’t have them, she would have never survived.

Well, um… ookay. All right, carry on!

Say what you will about breast implants, but they were a life saver for this woman. Be well
